It's time for another trip to Listburg, a magical meaty town whose residents are obsessed with the best of the best. Our most recent dispatch comes to us from AHT reader Thomas H....
I've lived in central Texas most of my 36 years and 11 years as an Austin area resident. I like burgers a lot, too -- can't eat barbecue EVERY day.Casino is OK. Huts is OK but always crowded. Dirty's is a good cheap greasy burger. Dan's is a good cheap greasy burger on the same level as Dirty's, and I like them a bit better. Artz Ribhouse is quite good for a higher-brow burger. I particularly like their South Austin cheeseburger with jalapenos and bacon as well as the Swiss burger. Poodie's Hilltop Bar and Grill is likely my favorite, though. Another personal favorite that got no mention is Ross's Old Austin Cafe. I ate there three times a week when I was working nearby. Nutty Brown Cafe in Dripping Springs also does a fine job.
So there's Thomas's recs for good Austin burgers. We'll track down contact info on these places later. In the meantime, if you wanna send AHT a list of your city's best burgers, we're all ears: adam [at] ahamburgertoday [dot] com
